“Late Night” host Seth Meyers mocked MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell during Thursday evening’s “Closer Look,” comparing him to a “crazy uncle” at the Thanksgiving dinner table “crying at the top of his lungs about voter fraud.” yelled at the top while everyone else silently ignores them and tucks into their green bean casserole.
On November 18, Lindell claimed during a segment on The Absolute Truth with Emerald Robinson that he had evidence of voter fraud in various races across the country, including Kari Lake’s gubernatorial race in Arizona.
“He screams like he’s delivering dialogue from a straight-to-DVD knockoff of Back to the Future,” Meyers joked, before going into the Lindell impersonation.
“Marty! We have to go back in time and make a new election!” he said. “I hooked up the DeLorean to the clock tower and got electrocuted and that’s why I talk like this! Plus, I found that sports almanac and bet a million dollars on The Bears!”
according to new York TimesLindell has spent up to $40 million on conferences, activist networks, a digital media platform, legal battles and researchers to promote his claim that the 2020 presidential election was stolen through a conspiracy to hack voting machines.
“First of all, I don’t believe he has researchers. I believe he has people who are willing to say they did research just to get an easy paycheck,” Meyers said. Took a pinch “‘Ok gang, did you guys do all the research I asked?’ Uh, yeah, definitely. Um, we found a bunch of cyber evidence using uh, Edison data to prove that they, uh, completely wiped out the state of Michigan? ‘Sounds good, guys Here’s a million dollars.’ If you ever hear Lindell yelling, just grab a lab coat and get paid.
Meyers then questions how Lindell has so much money.
“His pillows can’t be that good – otherwise he always looks like he hasn’t slept in five years,” she quipped. “But I don’t know. Maybe they are. I don’t know. So let me have a try.”
Meyers then threw a pillow at his desk several times for a screeching sound effect.
“Ok you guys, I want to clear something up. This is not the real MyPillow! I don’t want to get sued by Mike Lindell because if I am, I think I’ll be laughing through the whole trial and the jury will be against me for being immature.” Will happen,” he said. “If you want to sue someone, sue them,” he writes. I barely know what any of those words mean.
Then he tossed the pillow one more time before bursting into laughter.
